Former Under Scretary of State and Ambassador to the UN George Ball stated, "Practically every congressman and senator says his prayers to the AIPAC lobby... they have done an enormous job of corrupting the American democratic process." Andrew Hurley has done a masterful job in telling the story of Israel and the power of AIPAC over the U.S. Congress. This remarkable book was first published under the title Holocaust II, Saving Israel From Suicide as a public service at the end of a long, successful financial and law career. Arguably, US warring in the Middle East both through its own forces and through United Nations' actions, has only one lasting beneficiary--the state of Israel. Issrael's power has been magnified by the destruction of its neighbors. Andrew Hurley's thoroughly researched book explains why.

The confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers supported some of the earliest settlements in America.  From the Cahokia Mounds civilization to the flood of 1993, residents of the St. Louis region have depended on this landscape even as they have threatened its bounty.In Common Fields, thirteen original essays tell of the city's constant tension between urban growth and environmental sustainability.  Geographers, archaeologists, and historians examine the relationship between the city's diverse residents and the environment on which their well-being depends.  Whether channeling the river, laying streets, or clearing the air of coal smoke, St. Louisans have shown great ingenuity in overcoming the hazards of city development.And yet, our solutions to making the best use of the environment have only highlighted more basic societal questions:  How do we ensure liberty while providing equal opportunities?  How do we recognize uniqueness while eliminating barriers that prevent others' success?  The answers have everything to do with our ability to make sensible use of our environment-just as the rivers, fields, and city streets will forever shape the character of this city.
